Just keep an eye on him as there's nothing really wrong with them using their hide. It took mine months to figure out she had one and use it.

Get a fecal and blood test done. Now. I've had beardies do this when they are sick and by the time they're showing symptoms it can be too late. Don't mean to make you panic but you have to rule out infections. Like others have said he is too young to be brumating, so he could very well be sick.

As youve all guessed by now im a neurotic dragon mother and i have this on going problem with Fuzzy. He has been in his cave now for 2 days. I did physically remove him yesterday an he did eat some calci worms but went straight back into the cave.

Today i havent bothered to get him out. I thought id let him be.

When i peep into the cave he has his eyes closed. He appears to be sleeping. If i move a few things he will sleepily open his eyes but then closes them again.

My question is should i disturb him an get him out to check on him or just let him be?

Is it possible it could just be the time of year where hes slowing down an sleeping more?

If thats the case roll on the spring. Im a nervous wreck!

Let him sleep.

If he ate and hasn't pooped yet then you'll need to see if you can stimulate that before he conks out for a while.

This sounds like what my girl did before sleeping non stop. She's still sleeping and I miss her. I tale her out and make sure she c hasn't lost v weight and is hydrated. Cooper advised every 10-12 days is good for me to do that.

Popped into a reptile shop yesterday an was told i could trick Fuzzy out of brumation by upping the heat an leaving the lights on longer.

Does that usually work?

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
